A Love Like Pi Innocent Man lyrics

How long, how long
Are you asking me to stay?
I cannot stand to watch you kneel today
I saw your hope and turned my face
Away from you

But under her skirt I see the nation's pain
All kicked with dirt, she crossed her legs in shame
How can you hurt a man who knows your name?
It's true

I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent
I will not, I will not put the gun in my
I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent man

I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent
I will not, I will not put the gun in my
I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent man

You sit down, you sit down
You sit down, you sit down, you sit down
I watched her fall into the ground

How wrong, how wrong it is
To let us guess which god is real?
Which faith would suit us best?
Oh god of Pete's, quit trying to impress
Are you alive? Why?


I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent
I will not, I will not put the gun in my
I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent man

You sit down, you sit down
You sit down, you sit down, you sit down
I watched her fall into the ground

If you say, I believe it now
What we got we gave away
Holy god, that we have failed
We killed your carpenter with nails

In the end, when the fire comes burning up
The souls we spend
Is it worth what we have paid?

I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent
I will not, I will not put the gun in my
I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent man

I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent
I will not, I will not put the gun in my
I cannot, I cannot kill an innocent man

You sit down
